Updates

I've gone ahead and posted the final chapters of Evolution. The Journey Series is complete! Thank everyone who read the series!

Now for some less happy news... I've been debating this for quite a while now. Updating weekly is a lot of pressure to handle and that pressure is killing the writing process for myself and my co-writers. I know it's nice to know when the stories will be updated but now that we've run out of chapters on hand ... I'm afraid the weekly updates will have to stop. I will update hosted stories whenever new chapters are sent to me, but as for my stories and the co-written stories, I can't guarantee when those will be updated. A break is definitely in order to hopefully spark some creativity and help make writing more fun again, instead of feeling like work with deadlines and such. I do hope you all understand and I am truly sorry about this.

Only one update this week but with this update comes news. The Journey series is complete! It will have a total of 17 chapters and an epilogue when it's completely posted, and I will be posting one chapter of it a week until then. Steph and I want to thank everyone who has read the story and left feedback, you all are awesome! So today I'm posting chapter 12. I must apologize again because it's kind of a short chapter, hopefully next week I'll have more updates to post

laterz!

Just two stories this week. The final chapter is up for You Can Let Go, so give Jamie some awesome feedback for her terrific story!

More next week. Laterz!

I'm only updating hosted stories this week because Steph and I are seriously behind in writing and I only have a very few unedited chapters of Evolution and Sick As My Secrets left. Hopefully we'll find some time to write soon and catch up

. Until then please check out the awesome hosted stories!

Sorry, no Sick As My Secrets this week. Truth is I'm running out of chapters to update. Steph and I haven't had the time to write like we use to have. It's getting to the point that I may change the update schedule to once every two weeks until we can get some chapters built up again. I'll let everyone know by next week.

I really need to start doing most of my editing and stuff earlier in the week rather than saving it all for update day. LOL I cause myself such grief sometimes, but here's the updates for this week

more next week! Laterz!

2009 has not been my year. I want to start off by saying sorry that there's not a Sick As My Secrets update. I lost part of the chapter and am praying my co-writer has it on her computer. Nikki had 3 single part stories sent to me but I didn't feel up to making the chapter pages for them due to the fact that I'm sick for the third time this year. I'll have those new stories up next Thursday, promise. More updates next week, and hopefully Steph and I will find the missing pieces to Sick As My Secrets. Laterz

Very sorry about yesterday, some things came up. I wasn't able to edit the chapters to Evolution and Sick As My Secrets this week, again I apologize, but there are still a bunch of great chapters to read!

More next week, laterz!

Really sorry I'm late. I fell asleep LOL! But here are the updates. More next week! Laterz!

I've been suffering from some pretty serious writer's block on my solo stories so that's why they haven't been updated lately. I'm hoping to get back to them soon, I just need to think up some good ideas for the next chapters. But still I hope y'all enjoy the updates. More next week

laterz!

P.S. And a happy birthday to our favorite angel. Brian will be 34 tomorrow. I swear he doesn't look a day over 24. Lucky little.... anyway ... a happy birthday to him!

I want to thank everyone for all the well wishes.

I'm feeling much better now. I wasn't able to get any writing done this week but there's a good amount of updates anyway. Hopefully I'll feel more up to writing on my solo stories this week. More updates next Thursday! Laterz!

Sarah S.

Just the three updates this week. I got caught up in reading In This Land by Matthew Time and can think of nothing else. As soon as I'm caught up with all 118 chapters I'll be a little less obsessed ... hopefully lol... but more updates next week

Laterz!

Updates finally! I hope everyone had a great holiday season!

I forgot what it was like to do a big update so I ran a little behind lol. The Journey series continues (this is the series that will never end... yes it goes on and on my friend) LOL anyway Evolution is the next part and chapter one is up now. Also Steph and I are working on another story, an alternate universe story called Sick As My Secrets, so I hope everyone checks that out. Also the formally untitled high school story now has a title (thank you Vanessa!). Love Is, and it's also updated. Um ... and a whole bunch more updates as well. More updates next Friday ... oh and a very happy 31st birthday to our beloved AJ McLean! I hope wherever he is, he's having a blast, (and behaving himself... yeah right LOL)

Chapter 35 is the last chapter for Back To Basics, I hope you have enjoyed this story

Also, this will be the last update for the holiday season. Updates will resume on January 9th. I'm hoping this will give the hosted authors, and myself some much needed time to catch up on stories and get a few chapters ahead so that the updates stay frequent. On January 9th, the next part to the Journey series will begin. Evolution. Steph and I are thinking this will be the last part to this series... of course we thought the same thing about Back To Basics and we were wrong, so who knows LOL. I hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday season!

Well I was able to get all the updates done this week. I wasn't able to do any writing though with Thanksgiving and all. Just a note to the Journey Series readers. Back To Basics is nearing an end ..... and Steph and I can't leave this story alone so we've already begun the next in the series 'Evolution'. I can't promise this one will be as frequently updated as Back To Basics, but I do have a few chapters to start off with. I'm hoping to get back to writing and co-writing as much as I can. :) Laterz!

Very sorry to the hosted authors who submitted stories this week. I only had time to do a relatively quick update, but I promise next week your stories will be up. Again sorry for the delay. More updates next week :) Laterz!

Updates! And a huge thank you to the hosted writers! If not for them I'd have only had one story to update this week.

Both You Can Let Go and Whoever Made Up Betting Is A Fucking Idiot are off to great starts so please do check them out. More updates next week! Laterz!

All the updates this week are hosted stories, but they're AWESOME stories so please go check them out! I tried to get the chapter of Back To Basics ready but it needs a slight rewrite, and I only managed two pages for the untitled story so I'll do my best to get those updated next Friday.

New story in the hosted section by Nikki! Looks great so far so please go check that out!. Two chapters again to Back To Basics. More next week! Laterz!

P.S. I took down Jamie's story because she's doing a rewrite. The rewrite will be up soon

Sorry about last week. I've just been dealing with some pretty severe writer's block. Broke through a little today and managed to get a couple pages written on Starting Over. Not enough to update the story but it's a start. I also got a chapter of the untitled story written this week, and to make up for the lack of updates last week I'm posting 2 chapters of Back To Basics. More next week!

Laterz

Sorry about missing yesterday's update ... again. lol There's a new hosted author named Jamie R, so please go check out her story You Can Let Go.

More updates next week! Laterz!

Sorry about missing yesterday's update. Got attacked by an insane bee. They're just plain evil. Anyway, hope everyone enjoys the updates! More to come next week! Laterz!

Another week and again a decent amount of updates

I just wanted to remind everyone that there won't be an update next week since I will be out of town, so the updates will resume on the 12th of September. Take care everyone! Laterz!

Sarah S.

Updates! Again quite a few, I'm hoping this trend keeps up.

More to come next week! Laterz!

Sarah S.

Sorry for the delay in updates, I hope the amount of updates makes up for that. New story that I still don't have a title for *grumbles about that* Hopefully by next update I'll have thought of something for it. More updates next week. Laterz!

P.S. Also check out the EFR News section which has some upcoming news about the site.

Two updated stories this week! Next weekend there probably won't be an update since I'll be getting ready to leave for Montreal *yay BSB concert!* So next update will be August 8th or later depending on how long I stay in Montreal.

Totally can't wait and I'll be updating the gallery with a TON of new concert pics! Laterz!

Only one update this week. Life is beginning to get a bit more hectic as the summer progresses. I have two major trips coming up in August and September, so the updates may be a bit small for a while, but I'll try to keep posting at least something once a week.

Laterz!

Updates! New chapters to Starting Over, Changes, Back To Basics, and You Oughta Know. Also a new Affiliate. B3yond R3ality owned by my friend Lalig so please go check out her site! More next week. Laterz!

Updates! I actually managed to write a chapter of Starting Over and Vanessa and I had time to write a chapter to Changes this week. Also as always, a chapter of Back To Basics. Hope y'all enjoy the updates, more next week. Laterz!

Sarah S.

P.S. To everyone in the States, I hope everyone had a happy and safe Independence Day! To everyone else, happy Friday LOL.

Updates! And just to let y'all know there may be some changes in the coming weeks. I'm thinking about putting back up all the old discontinued stories. It'll be under a new section in the novel's section called Stories on hiatus. I can't guarantee any of the stories there will ever be finished, but they might as well be put back up to read

Laterz!

Updates! New story in the hosted section. The third part to the series Nikki is writing The Road Ahead is up to chapter 36, so please go check that out.

Sorry, only one story to update this week, but two chapters.

It's been quite a stressful time with planning to go to two BSB concerts this summer on opposite ends of the continent lol and Vanessa's been pretty busy as well. Plus I'm starting a job on Tuesday so updates may be rather small for a while. Laterz!

| 6/06/2008 | 11:20PM |

Updates! The first chapter to a new story by Anna, the sequel to Just 'Cause I can is up. It's called Leave Out All The Rest (Find Happiness Deep Inside) so please do check that out More next week! Laterz!

A few more updates than last week. And a note from Vanessa:

I'm really sorry for the lack of updates. Lately my life has been having more drama then my stories. Next week is looking better. Thanks for sticking with this story and if you have any thoughts please feel free to e-mail me. Enjoy the other writers's updates.

More updates next week! Laterz!

Sarah S.

Just two updates this week, more next week. Laterz!

Sarah S.

| 5/16/2008 | 9:35PM |

Updates ... almost forgot lol. I'm getting bad at that ... but anyway, there's a chapter of OBN ... finally lol. More next week!

Laterz!

Updates, and ... I was bored this week so new site design too lol. Hope y'all like it

More updates next week, Laterz!

P.S. I also wanted to make a note that in the Hosted section I accidentally forgot to put a link to Stacy's stories Lucidity and Stupefied, but the link is up now

Updates! Chapters 1 and 2 of Back To Basics and chapters 18 and 19 of You Oughta Know... Vanessa MUST write more ... and soon! LOL Y'all will see what I mean when ya check out the chapters. More next week and thank y'all for all your well wishes!

They were much appreciated. Laterz!

I totally forgot yesterday was Friday! LMAO I can't believe it... anyway here's the update. My week from hell consisted of me getting a new computer and having to take it back because the thing broke down on me 3 days after I bought it, so I've had to set up a new computer twice now. The NEW new computer seems to be working pretty well though, thankfully.

Chapter 35 is indeed the end of Closing Time, so next week I'll be posting the first chapter of Back To Basics. Steph and I are pretty far into the story already so the updates will remain constant And Vanessa would also like to say thank you for all the comments on You Oughta Know. I should make a comment myself. The story simply rocks, so if ya haven't checked it out yet, please do!

I didn't honestly think I was going to have a lot to update this week but then I read the end of chapter 28 of Closing Time and realized Steph and I couldn't leave a cliffhanger like that to next week so I decided to add chapter 29 to this week's update too, but I realized that chapter didn't really resolve things either, so y'all get 3 chapters of Closing Time this week. A kind of 'thank you' to everyone who's been commenting on the story. It really does mean a lot. And I managed to write a last minute chapter of Starting Over, and Vanessa and I got together and finished the chapter to Changes just a few minutes ago so it's a decent update after all ... yay! Ok as always, more next week laterz!

Updates... Unbreakable is now finished, I hope y'all like the ending Also the site has a slight new look, just changed a bit of the index layout. Hopefully this looks better. More updates next week though they might be a little late. Explanation in the news section Well that's all for this week, more next week ... laterz!

P.S. I've been rereading The Journey Series and doing a bit more editing to it. I found that the stories were indeed poorly edited, and I do apologize for that. Now that I have more time on my hands I'm going to try to go through as many stories on this site as I can and re-edit them. So far More To Life, Five, and half of Welcome Home have been re-edited.

Updates, and I added a new section to the site called EFRNews. Basically anything dealing with the site like a delay in updates, announcements or things like that will be posted there. I'll let everyone know when something new has been posted there, that way it doesn't get lost in the updates list.

Laterz!

P.S. I just noticed that chapter 6 of Changes hadn't been edited properly. That's fixed now. Sorry for that
